General Presswork

At Taylor Pressform, general presswork is the core of what we do. With over three decades of experience, we provide precision-formed metal components using mechanical and hydraulic presses ranging from 20 to 600 tonnes. This allows us to manufacture everything from small, intricate parts to larger and more robust components with consistency and reliability.
Our general presswork services are designed to support both low and medium-volume production. Whether you need 10 parts or 1,000, we can meet your batch size requirements with short lead times and a focus on quality. For smaller components, we can scale to batch quantities of up to 5,000 units per order, depending on size, weight, and tooling complexity.

We work with:

  • Mild steel up to 3 mm thick
  • Aluminium up to 1.5 mm
  • Stainless steel up to 1.2 mm

All of our work is controlled and carefully monitored by experienced operators. We pride ourselves on our hands-on approach, which gives us greater flexibility, better quality control, and the ability to make real-time adjustments where necessary. This is especially beneficial for clients who require tighter tolerances or have specific project constraints.

Our press beds support sizes up to 3×2 metres, giving us the capability to produce larger, high-strength components often required in sectors like automotive, white goods, heating systems, boilers, and industrial machinery. We regularly work with customer-owned tooling, but can also help design and source tools when needed, through close collaboration with UK-based toolmakers.

Each job is managed through transparent job sheets, ensuring full visibility from start to finish. Our ISO 9001-certified quality systems guarantee that all parts are inspected and documented according to your specifications.

Whether you’re a manufacturer looking for a dependable presswork supplier, or a design engineer needing a production partner that understands metal forming intricacies, Taylor Pressform is here to help.
